- November 07, 2009 George W. Bush Secretly Visits Fort Hood Victims

The Bushes entered and departed the sprawling military facility in secret, having told the base commander they did not want press coverage of their visit, a source told Fox News.

Former President George W. Bush and his wife Laura secretly visited Fort Hood last night and spent "considerable time" consoling those who were wounded in Thursday's shooting spree, Fox News has learned.

The Bushes entered and departed the sprawling military facility in secret, having told the base commander they did not want press coverage of their visit, a source told Fox News.

The couple was described as "deeply concerned" about military families on Fort Hood after Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan allegedly opened fire on soldiers and civilians, killing 13 and wounding 38.

The Bushes, who have a 1,600-acre property known as Prairie Chapel Ranch less than 30 miles from Fort Hood in central Texas, spent between one and two hours visiting the wounded and their families.

And yet the Obamassiah waffled his way into blythly mentioning the shooting during his press conference..quite a few minutes after stepping up to the podium.

Its apparent who the real president was..and who the rank amature is.

"IMHO, some people here give Jeff far more attention than he deserves, but obviously craves. The most appropriate response, and perhaps the cruelest, IMO, is to simply killfile and ignore him. An alternative, if you must, would be to post the same standard reply to his every post, listing the manifold reasons why he ought to be ignored. Just my $0.02 worth."

Yep, the real President was at Dover in the middle of the night last week, personally honoring the dead from the war the amateur bungled in his desire to invade Iraq. The Shrub never went to Dover. Not once in

8 years.

Let the Record show that Gunner Asch on or about Sat, 07 Nov 2009 18:03:14 -0800 did write/type or cause to appear in rec.crafts.metalworking the following:

Obama's a "post turtle". No that's not an army term (Like a "post hole digger"), but describes a turtle setting on top of a fence post. You know he didn't get there on his own, and you know he has no idea what to do next, now that he's there, but just waves his legs and peers about.

Uhm, let's see...The President was the one who was dealing with the families of dead soldiers from the war that the amateur started. The amateur somehow slipped in and out in secret, yet Fox News managed to cover it. Real good secret keeping for an amateur.

To paraphrase a certain amateur President who had a real knack for not being at the right place ever, "Heck of a job, Gummy."

Fine acronym, Pete. From now on, shall we hail the Chief as "OPT"?
